use sliver sand and cement will give you a better look. clean off with water allow to harden then clean with white spirits and boiled linseed oil 60- 40 , it will bring the colour out and seal the same time,
use a clean cloth to remove access and allow to harden been doing it for years and i have tried other methods but that just dont give you the same finish

AS FOR THE GROUT BIN IT

Unfortunately if it’s out of date it won’t be stable , sure it will mix ,it will spread and it will set ! However every time you wash it it will revert back to a soft mix and just wash out . It’s heart breaking !
